It's a OBDII reader I got from Newegg for 20 bucks. It is nothing short of awesome. This is a genuine one from BAFX. This will be useful when looking at CL used cars and will hopefully be used for my future Nexus 7 Dash install...Currently running Torque Pro on 5.0 Nexus 7.

As much as I'd like to, I'm not throwing away 20 bucks. Sorry, mate. Newegg has a sale on it!

There is a guy that did a manual on/off switch. Sucks the dang thing stays powered all the time. Its on the list for me.

Nice, OBD readers are something every Oppo should have (most do, I’m sure, but probably not all). I use Torque Pro with an ELM 337 adapter.

Well if you want to track your car, this would be useful. Track your fuel economy, wardrive, test your quarter mile times, etc.

I think you misunderstood. I mean -all the time-. Car is off, parked, this thing is still on.
